Number one as in best program of the world? No. It could be, but I doubt whether you could _ever_ point to one program as the best or the strongest program. The differences in playing strength are just too small. One conclusion you could draw from the SSDF list is that is really is a strong program ... when playing against other programs :-) Nevertheless, I welcome the effort of the SSDF in playing all those matches between programs. Although you can not conclude which program is really the strongest from this list, it gives a good indication on what the stronger programs are. That in itself is very useful. Richard.
